\ PITTsBURG, Pa, April 13.-The ac.
complies Of the railroad thieves are resort
ing to threats to intimidate the Panhandle
railroad officials. Among the mail laid on
Supt Taylor's desk this morning was let
ter in dainty envelope. 1t was addressed
to Mr.. Taylor, vino opened it and found the
following threatening missive:
Don't make any more arrests, damn you. or
we will cut your damn wires and do it as often
as we please. You can't get us all and you
had better let the matter drop. Dennison,
O., April IL, 1887.
Supt. Taylor thinks he recognizes the
handwriting and the man suspected will be
spotted. He is still in the company's en-
ploy. This letter would indicate that the
thieves have not all been captured and that
the gang was well organized. The police
are still working quietly on the case and
some startling developments are promised,
but of what nature cannot be surnised.
Two more arrests were made shortly after
midnight. John Barth and C. W. Smith,
brakeman, supposed to be implicated in the
robberies, were surprised at their homes
Barth was discharged from the Panhandle
a short time ago. and has since been work
ing on the Baltimore & Ohio.
SEVERAL PAWN TICKETS
and some new handkerchIefs, it is
said, were found on the per-
sons of the prisoners. John Nmmo, chief
of the brotherhood of brakemen on the
Panhandle road, called upon Deputy Mayor
Gripp, before whom the warrant had been
sworn out. this morning. and stated that he
had been employed on the Panhandle road
for the past four months. During that time
he had never seen anything crooked among
the employees. The brotherhood, he said.
would employ counsel to defend the pris-
oners and if possible establish their inno-
cence. If the proofs were shown of their
guilt, however, the brotherhood would as
sist in their conviction. 1t was the inten-
ton also to proceed against the company
for damages if the charges against any of
the men under arrest were not sustained.
The assistant district attorney stated to-day
that it was the attention of the grand jury
to finish the work laid out for this term
nextsweek, but if it seems better that the
Jury should hold over ten days in order to
dispose of the railroad cases, that will be
done.

contrmatory evidences accumulate showing
that the peculations on the Panhandle
